According to two sources familiar with the plans who asked not to be named because they were not authorized to discuss them, a remake of the 2013 cross-gen PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game is still in its earliest stages and will not be complete for at least a few years. A team at Ubisoft Singapore, one of the studios that has led development on the Assassin’s Creed franchise’s evolving ocean tech, will be heavily involved in helping to modernize the Caribbean-based sailing game.


quote:

One of the big ironies of this new situation is that some developers on Skull and Bones had previously discussed, at least privately, the possibility of pivoting the game back toward something more like Black Flag, potentially with a focus on co-op exploration and hand-to-hand combat rather than just resource gathering or player-vs.-player naval battles. It would have taken longer, but it’s not clear if it would have taken any longer than Skull and Bones already has.

How we never got multiplayer pirate fights in that game was a real shame

And lose contextual stealth. If they remade these older ones with the mechanics of Origins or Odyssey, I'd be all about it.

Please. Black Flag is my favorite of the series but the mechanics and gameplay of Odyssey were great.

I'd actually really like to see a remake of AC3. I loved the setting but never finished it when it first came out. I went back and tried to play it when it came out on PS Plus but it's really dated.

I have to ask what the hell is going on at Ubisoft

You've had Skull & Bones in development for like 100 years and instead of just making it Black Flag without assassins, they decide to remake Black Flag
